Where to find elves in Laugar

For anyone who wants to get off the traditional tourist path and wants to know more about Elves, then Laugar is the ideal place. You can climb a hill in search of a sacred stone: the Elf stone. Rocks are not just rocks to Icelanders; according to them, these are inhabited by Elves who are connected with the forces of Mother Earth.

Elves are recognized, honoured and respected in Iceland. They are an essential element of faith and life on the island. For example, when a new road is constructed, it must first be determined whether or not it passes through an Elven region. If so, then the road is constructed around the area in question.

Tips & info

Special places we would have missed otherwise ... We have just returned from a 16-day Iceland tour. The travel book was very helpful, we had downloaded and printed. The PDF travel guide helped us to find nice places. Very organized itinerary with a road map which listed all sites. TOP!Werner Bochar
